Pits honestly you can be such a goon :-)
I was actually wearing my workshop steel toecap Olivers, just because
I happened to have them on.

in the spirit of 'Top Gear' the bugger the fuel prices auto program
out of england I was out flying and bloody well enjoying it.
so there!

I worked out that fuel would have to climb above $4.80 per litre for
me to actually think of curtailing the flying.

They have already dumped communism their version of the communist
party is a combined republican, democratic, libertarian affair, and
the education system at high school and university is gravitating
towards English as a teaching and learning medium. So they are and it
tough banana to the rest of us.

China is not competitive on the world stage? But weren't you just
complaining that we were losing jobs to them???

IMHO the "everyone needs to think and act like us" mindset is a close
second to greed as being responsible for war and general discontentment
in this world. Diversity is a good thing.

I think we could make a substantial difference just by reducing our
consumption.
